Total (31775) * 0.92 (8% reserve) = 29233 blocks. So at least that matches up. Does the value under "1K-blocks" also change? If 'Avail' is changing, and 'Used' is not, '1K-blocks' has to be changing... This otherwise looks pretty normal, except it's a bit full. / should probably only have 15-20 Meg of space "permanently" taken (I have ~20 Meg used, but then I have 2 extra kernel's in / [4 meg worth]). -- Zach Heilig <zach@uffdaonline.net> "Americans are sensitive about their money, and since this was the first major change in the greenback in nearly 70 years, a radical redesign might have been too much for consumers to comprehend" -- John Iddings [COINage, Feb. 1999].
